The end is finally here, huh?

I really like these! The idea of a foreign expedition being scattered and lost sounds like a good one.

characters that aren’t just Europeans/white passing like the vast majority of FE characters

Yeah I’m not planning on letting this game suffer at the hands of the Cracker Curse.

I actually do still type with the indents 😅. The only reason I can’t on here is because of how markdown works, and it took me a while to figure out it was the indents messing with my formatting.

Pirates are definetly something I could do. There’s an archipelago, so I was already planning on at least 1 level with a lot of water.

Believe it or not, I have seen someone make use of Dragon Veins in a GBA ROM, though I have no clue how they got it to work. If I could get it to work, it would be cool to have certain mages eliminate certain terrain, or have physical classes break through pillars and such. If I could work this in, anything could be possible, and I could add dragon vein in like a class effect. I would just have to try to make it so changing certain aspects of the map wouldn’t break the ROM.

Yeah I get this too, I just got past my initial spur of character creation, and while I still have some ideas I wanted to see if other people might be able to help in diversifying the cast so they all aren’t my brain children. An adult manakete would be pretty cool, I don’t think I’ve seen someone do that before!

Oh no I wouldn’t do it like that, this game is going to be shitting on the nobles/capitalist class, as the main character is from a recently-liberated people’s republic. I think I would have the noble would realize that they are the exception, not the rule, and see that most others in their position would do anything to maintain/gain power. Kind of like a class traitor kind of thing.

This could actually work really well, especially since one of the countries suffers from extreme income inequality. Maybe the child of a regional representative (yes the country is modeled after a liberal capitalist nation) could flee home and hire an impoverished sell-sword as the child tries to explore the world they have been sheltered from. I do like dynamics like these, as these kinds of characters play off of each other really well.

This idea would actually work really well in the story of the game due to how I plan on making magic work, and I would love to see what you could come up with. I don’t want to say too much about the magic system, because it might stifle what you have in mind, but in short there are three different variations of magic: Light, Anima (elemental, specifically Fire, Wind, Thunder), and Dark.

I’ll have to create a post about what I’m planning on doing, I’ve just started but I’ve had a good amount in my mind already. Most of my progress so far is in writing, so maybe it can go in the writing comm. I would love to be able to get feedback on what I have so far; the main reason I wanted to do this in the first place is because I love writing, fantasy, and Fire Emblem, so I’m excited to see what I can create.

I haven’t played a fire emblem game so no idea what they’re about

Fire Emblem does combat with units on a grid. It’s kind of like chess, but also different in many ways.

you mentioned it’s going on a rom is this like a rom hack

This is a rom hack, I can do some things but I am by no means capable of making a game from scratch.

Would any silly idea do or does it have to fit certain rules

Any idea works! I would probably prefer something more in-tone with the setting (fantasy army/militia), but if you have a really good idea just go for it , I could probably find a way to fit it in, or eventually create a seperate ROM with entirely hexbear characters if people wanted that.

Braver than the troops 🫡

I’ll be there, the last debate was so mask-off idk if this one can top it.

Damn I thought this was a struggle session. Bot went rogue.

A sand which that was pretty much just brocolli, celery, and lettuce. I only got this version once, I ordered it again and got cheese. Someone else I know decided to get it, cheese.

I go out of my way to avoid these gas stations
